BP's consolidated cash-flow statement does not separately identify UK cash corporation tax. Its accounting tax charge, production taxes and payments to governments are different measures and are not used to fill the UK cash-tax gap. The group cash-flow statement reports USD 6,589m income taxes paid for 2025. The amount is worldwide, is kept in its reported US dollars and is not the wider corporate-income-and-production-tax contribution.
